I knew this time of year would be hard, but man do I want some Girl Scout cookies!! It makes it so much harder when I work for a local council and there are trailers full right outside.

I think I did pretty good. I brought 2 boxes of Thin Mints, 1 for me and 1 for my mom. So far, I've just been following the allowed serving size, which is 4. Plus I'm drinking lemon Water to help curb any cravings, since I'm on a strict carb allowance.

Maybe they could come up with Girl Scout-branded Protein shakes!

That's exactly what I made last night.

My daughter brought a box of thin mints home from work. Rather than choke her , I made chocolate Protein shake and squirted some mint extract into it.

Not bad! Not a thin mint, but it got me through a near disaster!!!

I haven't seen a girl scout all year, except on the internet. In my previous town they would have been all over, here, nothing.

I bought two boxes of the thin mints and ate six cookies. The family ate the rest and I won't buy any more boxes. Previous years I would have purchased 12 boxes and could easily eat half a box of cookies on one sitting. I call this progress!!!!

The mint chocolate Quest bars taste a lot like Thin Mints. That is what I hope will get me through!

Twinings has a Girl Scout cookie tea...just saying...(I'm hibernating....told daughter if she brings them here...!!!)

I buy several boxes but only 2 go home with me, the rest are donated to the Girl Scouts military program ( the cookies are sent overseas to our troops ) WIN WIN !!☺

There is a serving size? Who knew!

I have 2 nieces that are Girl Scouts, I bought 5 boxes from each one and had them donated to the troops overseas. Out of site out of mind ...

I don't buy girl scout cookies because the Keebler Elves make identical cookies for a fraction of the price all year long. I buy them occasionally and have no problem eating one cookie a day

yeah i second the keebler elf thing although i will destroy a box of thin mints if left in my house so i never buy them

The only thing is buying cookies from the girls supports their troop and that's how they get to go on trips and do service projects so I try to buy when possible. It's basically a donation.

I wish the Keebler elf would fall out of his tree.....

I bought five boxes of Thin Mints from a coworker. Gave two boxes each to my college daughters and one box to my mom. Too deadly for me to play with.

Girls scout cookie season sounds like a horrible test/trick for dieters. So glad we don't have an equivalent here in the UK. As far as I know, Brownies and Girl Guides don't do that.
